Interested in these cases, Redditor TheCheeryStranger recently asked other platform users, "What 'crazy' person in history was right the whole time?" Spoiler alert - the Catholic Church was covering up child abuse. The Catholic Church had him tried for Heresy and had him burned at the stake and his contemporaries though he was completely insane. The Catholic Church called it heresy, and ordered him to turn himself in to the Holy Office to begin a trial for his beliefs. So basically people thought he was crazy and made everything up but in modern times its proven that he was right all along.
